UL Certification

Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) is an independent product safety certification organization. It develops standards and test procedures for products, materials, components, assemblies, tools and equipment, chiefly dealing with product safety. UL also evaluates and certifies the efficiency of a company's business processes through its management system registration programs. Additionally, UL analyzes drinking and other clean water samples through its drinking water laboratory and evaluates products for environmental sustainability through its subsidiary, UL Environment.

UL operates under its own authority as an independent, not-for-profit, nongovernmental organization.

To establish certification

Samples of a product submitted by manufacturers for certification are tested and evaluated. If UL decides the product fulfills all applicable requirements it authorizes the manufacturer to apply a certification mark to production of the samples submitted, or issues a certificate or notification that the product is now certified by UL. A report of the evaluation is provided to the manufacturer. Before the manufacturer releases products with a certification mark, UL must initiate Follow-up Service in which periodic audits of products at the factory are completed by UL Field Representatives. These audits are described in a Follow-Up Service Procedure that is created as part of the initial evaluation of the product.
Testing and evaluation of samples of products submitted for certification can be performed in UL's laboratories or in laboratories qualified by UL assessment and ongoing monitoring Only UL reviews the results of all testing and evaluation and decides if the product is eligible for certification.
